Hello, I think there might be a small oversight on my end. It seems the issue could be related to how Steam handles its own libraries. Previously, using the built-in "Device auto-mount" tool worked, but after switching to `fstab`, it stopped. The permissions in your secondary directory appear correct, matching what Steam uses. If you're still facing problems, double-check the mount configuration and ensure your Steam profile is properly set up. Let me know if you need further guidance.

It looks like you made a quick adjustment and everything is now functioning properly. Just delete the `user` line from your fstab entry, which lets you mount without root privileges. Your updated line now starts with `UUID=...`. After that, remounting the drive resolved the issue. Let me know if you need further assistance.
